1.2.5. SD memory card
Milestone 212 uses SD and SDHC memory cards to store books and other files. SD
stands for "Secure Digital", which denotes a world-wide standard for memory cards. These
memory cards are available in different memory capacities up to 32 GB. We recommend
SD cards from SanDisk, Kingston, Transcend and Toshiba for trouble-free usage. You can
insert an SD memory cards into the longish slot on the right side of Milestone 212. To
insert the card press until it locks in. Please do not use excessive force. To remove the
card, gently push on the card and it will pop out of the SD-slot.
Attention: If you have problems with inserting the SD memory card make sure the card is
adjusted correctly. The card has a ribbed side. This is where the contacts are. In addition
one corner is notched. When inserting the card make sure the ribbed side is in front and
the notched corner is facing down and towards you.
2. Global functions
This chapter covers the general operation of the Milestone 212. The following shortcuts
and therewith activated functions do work in all applications, "Books", "Voice Recorder"
and "Audio".
2.1. On / Off (sleep mode)
Milestone 212 has no physical on / off switch. Press "Play" to start the Milestone 212. After
ten minutes of inactivity, the device will automatically go into sleep mode to conserve
battery life. The device will reactivate upon pressing the middle "Play" button. After
reactivation the device returns to the last active application and position.
Hint: If your Milestone does not wake up by pressing the "Play" button, there are three
possibilities to check: The keyboard is locked, the sound volume is on the lowest level or
the battery is empty.
2.2. Keyboard lock
To lock the keyboard, push the "Mode" button first, keep it pressed while pressing the
"Rec" button quickly, and finally let go of the "Mode" button again. When the keyboard is
locked you will hear the message "Keyboard locked". All key presses will be ignored,
except the shortcut that unlocks the keyboard. Therefore simply press the same
combination of buttons again. The device will acknowledge this with the message
"Keyboard active".
2.3. Volume control
There are 16 volume levels on the Milestone 212. To increase the volume by one level,
hold down the "Mode" button and then in addition press the "Right arrow" button. To
decrease the volume by one level press "Left arrow" while holding down the "Mode"
button. If you want to change by more than one level, simply keep the "Mode" button
pressed and hit the arrow button once for each volume level.
If you change volume during playback you just hear the volume increasing or decreasing.
If the volume is changed during paused mode, Milestone 212 announces "Volume up" or
"Volume down". Reaching the maximum and minimum levels is indicated by a beep.
